Jefferson, Mrs. J, and Josie have decided to go to England next May. He does not yet know if he will act or not; if he does, it will only be Rip [van Winkle] - "they would not stand [his Bob] Acres in London." Is glad Daly's company made a hit, and Mary Anderson's triumph is a still greater satisfaction to him. Evidence on accompanying envelope shows that this letter was forwarded from London through a F. Burgers, Esq., Church End, Hinckley. Addressed "My dear Willie" and signed "Joe."
